Fuel Filter replacement
Written by c.amiels on 4/24/2010 at 02:07 pm

DON'T EVER CRIMP THE FUEL LINE!!!!!!! before you start find a piece of a wooden
dowel rod or something else you can use as a plug so many times i have crimped
the line and just that extra pressure on the line cracks it or distorts it and
now your into more of a repair that you started out with.But i guess if you see
cracks in your line before you even start don't even touch it untill you get new
hose also. My opion fron experience

went to replace it, it didn't fit! The hose was too big for the openings on the
ends of the filter. Ran over to the closest dealer & picked up a Hondaline
filter ($21 - OUCH!) which they actually had in stock. By the time I got back
my fuel line had been crimped for over an hour & the old rubber had cracked.
Had to cut if off @ the break & use what I had.
